Formed in 1908, the Athletic Club 

 

1909: Earl Hanna announced in October the team was seeking games in and out of Portland.

 

Played in the 155lb average division as a "lightweight" or "senior" team.

 

In blowing out the Union Drug company team, the Stars used the forward pass to score chunk plays to great effect.

 

On Oct 23, the Stars handed St. James College their first loss in four years in an 11-10 victory.  The lightweight Piedmont then went on to challenge any Portland teams with the exception of the heavy Multnomah Athletic Club and Catholic Young Mens Club, however after there were no takers, the Stars did play the heavier Catholics and showed well in two games.
